Nevermind, I stand corrected and, to be honest, incredibly relieved. :-)
But how comes I cannot watch http://www.fxopenesports.com/tear (screenshot)?

F'ing rad, man. Good job, FXO! I hope we'll see more low-mid-tier events as well? Will FXO be expanding their sponsorship beyond the one team to sponsoring maybe events or other things?

I think Tear has his settings set to fullscreen instead of windowed-fullscreen. Video is all messed up.

This channel has so many interviews that I've always wanted to see D;

Hmm that one I cant really help you as it's not very specific as to why I will have to pass this along to our rep as to what's going on. on the bright side all streams are automatically uploaded as a VOD after the broadcast ends.

On other note, is there something equivalent to a stream chat?
|
Maybe it's the same as for the SPL live stream on youtube and you can't watch it in Germany or Europe? Cause I'm in Germany and get the same error "The video is not available".

I will bring this up with our rep today, we were told that provided we did not break copyright rules there would be no restrictions on viewing our content. We also had people from Germany view our test broadcasts last week without issue.
